Starting according periodic table nothing in universe is without a trace,in the movie water explode without a trace,simply absurd to open a fictional plot to do this low profile production,but the worst came up along the picture,the next 007 has a frivolous and unfaithful wife who is dating a powerful senator,our hero cries for this kind of woman,became a joke for everyone in senate...until the security guards make their bad comments ....it's so much disgrace to acept this kind of role,save me that!!!Resume:First watch: 1995 / How many: 2 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 5

In this flick Pirece "Remington Steele" Brosnan plays a detective who think s he's James Bond and who suffers from sporadic bouts of potty mouth. He has a girl friends with a great pair o' gams who doesn't know much about anything but she looks good which always helps in a movie. I liked PB in RS-even though it was a bit 'conservative'-I thought it worked & I liked that he had a female "sidekick" who was smarter than he was-it showed he was intelligent himself. This film is 'exploitation cinema' as it tries to sell you the idea that it is about catching terrorists when it really isn't about anything. It suggests the idea a tasteless & colorless poison can be added to water to generate a super powerful explosion. Yeh and its called 'Dues ex Machina'-just like in old Roman plays when they ran out of ideas.Might work if you had a lousy date with someone and wanted to erase the memory of it. Combine with booze kind of thing-other than that its basically a dud that bare passes on the high number of camera movements it uses.

This was one of Pierce Brosnan's earlier outings as Danny O'Neal, an explosives expert with the FBI. When two U.S. Senators are assassinated by a bomber, Brosnan and his partner are stumped: Where are the pieces of the bomb? Where is the trigger? I saw this the first time on one of the pay channels not long after it was released, mostly because Lisa Eilbacher (whom I've had a crush on since forever) was in the cast. I liked this movie because I was intrigued by the plot. How were they making bombs out of PEOPLE, for God's sake? Good performances by Ben Cross and Brosnan as the bad guy and the hero, respectively. Ron Silver is also slimy as ever as a crooked senator, and Lisa Eilbacher rounds out the cast as Brosnan and Silver's love interest (did I mention that I'm nuts about her?).So, if you're looking for a way to kill 90 minutes or so without having to work too hard at following the plot rent this. I found this again in the cheap section at the local rental store. It was well worth the $1.00 rental price.

If you are a Pierce Brosnan fan, you must see this. This movie allows you to see Pierce Brosnan play a character that is not so James Bondian. The cast is great, and the story is the typical "hero saves the day" type. Unlike most terrorist type movies, the writers cleverly chose a weapon of destruction that is atypical and unique. I highly recommend this movie for action, good story, good characters, and entertainment in general. Not your run-of-the-mill action movie.
